Analysis for excerpt from "Whale Story"

Right into it,

I feel that the protagonist is meant to be the average 11-year-old girl that has moved to a new place. There is something magical about the place, (it happens to be... Bamfield!) not real. The developing theme I see in the excerpt is either about how moving to a new place is OK,and fun, or anything along the lines of anything is possible if you believe. I can connect it to the story in that I am/was where it takes place, so the visualizations are easier, not just nature, but the architectural style. It might have been easier to visualize, had I been lucky enough to see a whale, but what I saw was way more than I imagined.
